    Google Sheets Graph

    Hi everyone,

    We have a graph in Google Sheets that calculates manpower based on certain types of projects and compares them to our plan. Using the link below is an example. I'm struggling in the graph to input the "Manpower per Plan". As you can see in the first graph, its plotting 20 straight line across (which is correct), however its not aligned with the left vertical axis. Can someone tell me the issue here?

    My phone app won't show me chart type. What type of line chart are you using regular or stacked? It's a common mistake in Excel and Sheets may not be better to inadvertently choose a stacked line when you intended to use a regular line. Your chart looks like a stacked line chart to me. Check your chart type.

    i have created a new file, with several adjustments which i believe present the data more logically.

    however, due to forum rules, i am not allowed to share it with you.
